Die With Me launches AI cooldown club
Die With Me is a free Mac menu-bar app that turns Claude Code and Codex usage limits into sleepy mascots, friend rankings, statuses, and a shared chatroom for low-allowance moments. It brings AIM-era presence and lightweight social interaction to AI-assisted development.
The clever part isn’t another quota dashboard; it turns rate-limit frustration into a small social ritual for people building with AI.
- –Tracks Claude Code and Codex usage while keeping provider credentials on the Mac
- –Friend codes, rankings, lounges, snacks, and status updates make invisible AI activity feel tangible
- –The chatroom unlocks when usage runs low, giving an otherwise frustrating interruption a community angle
- –Free access and macOS support make adoption easy, but the experience depends on convincing friends to join
- –Percentage-based rankings are playful rather than scientific because plans have different allowances
